1 CONFORMANCE STATEMENT OVERVIEW The CyberKnife System currently supports CT, MR, PET, 3DRA image studies with up to 4 patient positions: HFS (head-first supine), FFS (feet-first supine), HFP (head-first prone), and FFP (feet-first prone). Contact Accuray for a list of supported patient positions for each modality. DICOM RT Structure Set is the RT object that can be imported from verified external nodes into the CyberKnife On-Target TM, MultiPlan and InView applications. Contact Accuray for a complete, current list of external nodes. DICOM RT Structure Set and RT Dose are currently the RT objects that can be exported from the CyberKnife System and MultiPlan System. In CyberKnife 9.0 and later systems, DICOM RT Plan and RT Beams Treatment Record can be exported from the CyberKnife System. Exportable DICOM RT Dose information includes a multi-frame volume dose grid, dose volume histograms (DVH), and isodose curves. This RT Dose could be imported into InView to review the DVH, isodose curves/clouds, and statistical information. Also the dose grid and DVH of RT Dose could be imported into ITC Remote Review Tool 34 after pushing to the ITC DICOMPiler software 5 for adding DICOM File Meta Information and Clinical Trial Subject C.7.1.3 module (0012 00xx), and the anonymization. The 16 February, 2001 are ATC Compliant 4 after the version 1.5.1 product release 6. Regarding Part 10 file format, our software, as of version CyberKnife 5.2.0, can export DICOM part 10 files. After pushing back to InView and CyberKnife databases via CTN_SEND/ CTN_STORAGE/ CTN_ARCHIVE applications, CTN s DICOM server will trim DICOM File Meta Information out because it only supports Implicit VR Little Endian Transfer Syntax prior to the CyberKnife 8.5. The 16 February, 2001 1.6, and the CyberKnife Data Management System (CDMS) 1.0/1.1 do not support those images that have two Image Header (0028,xxxx) for two Pixel Data(7FE0,0010), i.e. two instances of the Image Pixel Module, within one slice image file. The CyberKnife System and MultiPlan System support 3D X-Ray rotational angiography(3dra) in axial and coronal slices of XA modality, whose volumes are routinely generated from rotational angiography sequences - currently for Philips and Siemens machines which are capable of performing high speed rotational acquisition that enables 3D reconstruction. The CyberKnife System does not support 2D X-Ray angiographic projection image. Contact Accuray for the recommended scanning protocol. The DICOM application entity for the CyberKnife System evolved with different product releases in the below table. Table 1.

Conformance Statement Overview 1.1 For CyberKnife 7.x and Earlier Systems Only Images received are sorted by Study Instance UID; all images received with the same Study UID will be grouped into the same case in the CyberKnife central database. Multiple modalities could be within the same case. Also, note that images received with the same Study Instance UID and modality over different associations will be imported to the CyberKnife central database just once. So, the user should ensure that a complete image study has been exported to the CyberKnife System before importing that study to the CyberKnife central database. Note that image series of the same modality are effectively concatenated into a single series. This allows the user to scan the patient anatomy for a single plan in two or more series. If, however, the user desires to divide the scans for separate treatment plans of different anatomical regions, the user should ensure that the scans have different Study Instance UIDs. Beginning with CyberKnife 4.3.0 patch (On-Target TM 3.6.0 patch) or CyberKnife Japanese Maintenance 3.4.0.4, the split series feature is provided for users needs. The DICOM server used is available at all times except during treatment delivery. 1.2 For CyberKnife 8.0 and Later Systems Only With the 8.0 release the split option has been removed. Series with the same modality will be treated as separate series. A merge option is available if two image series represent a single image series. The following are other changes that apply to CyberKnife release 8.0 and beyond. Series are imported using the Image Review and Import application located on the Administration Workstation. DICOM server has been relocated to a dedicated data storage system. DICOM server accepts storage associations independently of treatment delivery 1 1.3 For CyberKnife 8.5 and Later Systems Only Beginning with the 8.5 release the CyberKnife System employs a new DICOM infrastructure based on the MergeCOM-3 TM Advanced Integrator's Toolkit 7 by Merge Healthcare TM. This DICOM interface is continuously implementing support for most recent updates to DICOM standards, which in turn enables the CyberKnife System to offer extensive DICOM capability including The newly added DICOM transfer syntaxes referenced below with their UIDs: Implicit VR Little Endian 2 (1.2.840.10008.1.2) Explicit VR Little Endian (1.2.840.10008.1.2.1) Explicit VR Big Endian (1.2.840.10008.1.2.2) JPEG Lossless coding Process 14 (1.2.840.10008.1.2.4.70) 1 The DICOM server is available 24/7 beginning with the 8.0 release. 2 The Implicit VR Little Endian is the only DICOM transfer syntax prior the CyberKnife 8.0 release. viii P/N 019055, Rev. N

Conformance Statement Overview The DICOM Files are stored in Part 10 format 3 Multi-threaded DICOM Server DICOM Interface utilizing RT Plan, RT Beams Treatment Record, RT Beams Delivery Instruction8, and Unified Procedure Step 9 objects. The Standardized Uptake Value (SUV) of PET imaging for [F-18] fluorodexyglucose (FDG) studies that is commonly used to differentiate malignant from benign tumors and to assess the efficacy of therapy. Beginning with the 9.0 release the CyberKnife System supports PET SUV calculation based on the standard DICOM attributes, such as SIEMENS Biograph or CPS/ECAT systems, and the private DICOM attributes, such as GE Advance and Discovery family systems and PHILIPS AllegroTM and GeminiTM systems. An Oncology Information System (OIS) provides workflow solutions for radiation therapy and radiosurgery treatment delivery. Beginning with the 9.0 release the CyberKnife System utilizes the industry-standard DICOM protocol to (1) export patient treatment plan to an OIS for charting and scheduling, (2) query the OIS for scheduled treatment sessions and (3) export treatment results following delivery. The Dynamic Contrast Enhanced MR imaging (DCE MRI) is a well-established method for detecting and quantifying tumor angiogenesis. Beginning with the 9.5 release the CyberKnife System supports DCE MR images and the Pharmacokinetics data created by the icad MR Analysis System (SpectraLook, VividLook and OmniLook ) based on the standard and private DICOM attributes from icad system. There are well-known Quality Assurance(QA) tools offered to compare a scanned film with a 2D planar dose created from the treatment plan. Beginning with the 9.5 release the CyberKnife System supports 2D planar dose export in the DICOM RT Dose for axial, coronal and sagittal planes, but the 2D planar dose is not intended to use in any InView system. 3 The DICOM file is stored in DICOM stream format prior the CyberKnife 8.0 release.

2 INTRODUCTION This document is a DICOM v3.0 1 Conformance Statement for the CyberKnife Robotic Radiosurgery System. It details the DICOM Service Classes and roles supported by this product. The CyberKnife System represents an entirely new approach to radiosurgery. Incorporating a compact, lightweight linear accelerator mounted on a robotic arm, the CyberKnife System provides the surgeon unparalleled flexibility in targeting. Advanced image guidance technology tracks patient and target position during treatment, ensuring accuracy without the use of an invasive head frame. The CyberKnife System is intended to provide radiosurgery for lesions anywhere in the body when radiation treatment is indicated. The CyberKnife System has often been used to radiosurgically treat otherwise untreatable tumors and malformations. The CyberKnife System prior to the 8.5 release was developed using MIR DICOM Software CTN v3.0.6 Tool Kit 2 for DICOM v3.0 Services supplied by Electronic Radiology Laboratory, Mallinckrodt Institute of Radiology, Washington University School of Medicine, St. Louis, Missouri USA. 2.1 Applicability This document is intended to facilitate DICOM data exchange between the CyberKnife System and other DICOM compliant systems. 2.2 Acronyms/Terminology 3DRA AE ATC CKS CDMS CT CTN DCE MRI DICOM DIMSE DVH EVF FSN IOD 3 Dimensional X-Ray Rotational Angiography Application Entity Advanced Technology Consortium CyberKnife System CyberKnife Data Management System Computerized Tomography Central Test Node Dynamic Contrast Enhanced Magnetic Resonance Imaging Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine DICOM Message Dose-Volume Histogram Extra-cellular Volume Fraction based on Pharmacokinetics analysis of DCE MRI AccuFusion Image Registration Program Information Object Definition P/N 019055, Rev.

3 IMPLEMENTATION MODEL The CyberKnife Systems prior to the 8.5 release uses the CTN application for creation of DICOM Storage Service Class server. The storage service classes, CTN_STORAGE/CTN_ARCHIVE Application Entity and CTN_SEND Application Entity, will act respectively in the role of an SCP and an SCU, and facilitates the transfer of a DICOM file between a location and a CKS workstation via a network. The CyberKnife 8.5 and later systems use the MergeCOM-3 TM Advanced Integrator's Toolkit for creation of DICOM Storage Service Class server. The storage service classes, CDMS_STORAGE Application Entity and CDMS_SEND Application Entity, will act respectively in the role of an SCP and an SCU, and facilitates the transfer of a DICOM file between a remote workstation and a CKS workstation via a network. 3.1 Application Data Flow Diagram 3.1.1 For CyberKnife 7.x and Earlier Systems Only The CTN_STORAGE server application stores received DICOM files within a standard UNIX directory 2. The DICOM files may then be imported into the CyberKnife central database via the MIRIT application. MIRIT is a CyberKnife application which provides the capability to review and import DICOM images to the CKS central database. When MIRIT is invoked, it will scan the directory of files, written by CTN_STORAGE, to determine if individual files may be associated. The association criterion is matching Study UID. If files belong to the same study they will be imported to CKS as a single dataset. The CTN_ARCHIVE server application imports the received DICOM files into an SQL database and a DICOM hierarchical directory 2 used by the InView and the MultiPlan Systems. The CTN_SEND application pushes the DICOM files to the remote AEs, supporting DICOM Storage as SCP. The DICOM files are exported from the CyberKnife On-Target or MultiPlan and InView applications, or are imported into the CyberKnife central database or InView local database. CTN_SEND is initiated by the user of the CyberKnife On-Target, MultiPlan or InView applications. 3.1.2 For CyberKnife 8.0/8.1 Systems Only The CTN_STORAGE server application stores received DICOM files onto the CDMS Data Server file system. These files are moved into the CDMS database following arrival. The DICOM files may then be reviewed and imported into a patient record using the CDMS IRI application located on the CDMS Administration Workstation. CTN_ARCHIVE server application imports the received DICOM files into the SQL database and a DICOM hierarchical directory 2 used by the InView and the MultiPlan Systems. 4 P/N 019055, Rev. N

Implementation Model The CTN_SEND application pushes the DICOM files to the remote AEs, acting as a DICOM Storage as SCP. The DICOM files can be exported from the CDMS Data Server, MultiPlan and InView applications. DICOM series are stored in the CDMS database or InView local database. CTN_SEND is initiated by the user of the MultiPlan and InView applications. CTN_SEND from CDMS Data Server can be initiated by the user of Plan Administration or DICOM Administration, located on the CDMS Administration Workstation, for both DICOM image and RT series. 3.1.3 For CyberKnife 8.5 and Later Systems Only The CDMS_STORAGE server application stores received DICOM files onto the CDMS Data Server file system. These files are moved into the CDMS database following arrival. The DICOM files may then be reviewed and imported into a patient record using the CDMS IRI application. The CDMS_SEND application pushes the DICOM files to the remote AEs, acting as a DICOM Storage as SCP. The DICOM files can be exported from the CDMS Data Server. The CDMS_SEND is initiated by the user of the MultiPlan System after exporting DICOM image and RT files. The user can initiate CDMS_SEND for both DICOM image and RT series on a CDMS Data Server from IRI, Plan Administration or DICOM Administration. The CDMS_QR is used to query a remote DICOM SCP for plans available for delivery and is initiated following launch of the CyberKnife System Treatment option. The CDMS_UPS is used to communicate the delivery intent to a remote Treatment Management System, and is initiated at the start of a treatment session. P/N 019055, Rev. N 5

Implementation Model 3.2 Functional Definitions of Application Entity 3.2.1 For CyberKnife 8.1/8.0/7.x and Earlier Systems Only The CTN_STORAGE server application waits until it receives a C-STORE request from a remote SCU. Upon receipt, it saves the received data to a directory with a unique file name. The server handles one association at a time. The CTN_ARCHIVE server application waits until it receives a C-STORE request from a remote SCU. Upon receipt, it saves the received data to a DICOM hierarchical directory with a unique file name and inserts the header information into the SQL database. The server handles multiple associations simultaneously. CTN_ARCHIVE is a service that runs continuously after boot of the 16 February, 2001 workstations. The CTN_SEND application invokes a C-STORE DIMSE service with a SOP instance and then an association will be established with the AE identified by the user. Information objects will be transferred one at a time until there are no more to transfer. CTN_SEND and CTN_STORAGE/CTN_ARCHIVE act as SCUs role and SCPs respectively for the SOP classes of the Storage Service Class. 3.2.2 For CyberKnife 8.5 and Later Systems Only The CDMS_STORAGE server application waits until it receives a C-STORE request from a remote SCU. Upon receipt, it saves the received data to a DICOM hierarchical directory with a unique file name and then inserts the header information into the CKS database. The server handles multiple associations simultaneously. CDMS_STORAGE is a service, started right after booting the CDMS Data Server workstation, which run continuously. The CDMS_SEND application invokes a C-STORE DIMSE service with a SOP instance. After this occurs, an association will be established with the AE identified by the user. Information objects will be transferred one at a time until have been transferred. CDMS_SEND and CDMS_STORAGE serve in the SCU role and the SCP role respectively for SOP classes of the Storage Service Class. CDMS_QR serves in the SCU role for the SOP class of the Query and Retrieve Service Class. CDMS_UPS serves in the SCU role for the SOP class of the Unified Procedure Step Service Class. 3.3 Sequencing of Real-World Activities The CyberKnife System has no way of knowing when it has a complete study or what constitutes a complete study. Users should be aware of how many DICOM image files constitute a complete image study before importing into the CyberKnife database. 8 P/N 019055, Rev. N

CTN_STORAGE/CDMS_STORAGE does not limit who may connect to it. When the CTN_ ARCHIVE/CDMS_STORAGE accepts an association, it will receive supported image SOP Instances and store them in its database that needs to be configured in CTNControl database. The CTN_ ARCHIVE does not limit who may connect to it. When Verification SCP accepts an association it responds with a success status. 4.1.3.1 Associated Real-World Activity Store Request from an External Node The associated Real-World activity associated with the C-STORE operation is the storage of the image on the disk of the system upon which the CTN_STORAGE/CTN_ARCHIVE/CDMS_STORAGE server is running. Images are stored by writing the data set of the C-STORE command directory to disk with no further header or interpretation. The CTN_STORAGE/CTN_ARCHIVE/CDMS_STORAGE server application responds to remote C-ECHO requests. The CTN_STORAGE/CDMS_STORAGE server application will automatically handle request for image storage and store them on receipt of C-STORE requests. The file will be stored in the directory specified at startup of the daemon. The CTN_ARCHIVE server application updates an image database with patient, study, series and image information after the image is stored to disk. 4.1.3.2 Presentation Context Table Any of the Presentation Contexts shown in Table 3 is acceptable to the CyberKnife System for receiving and importing information objects. 12 P/N 019055, Rev.
